Let a user have a managing team as "a manager"
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Situation: In the contacts app of Nextcloud, we would like to set up the “Organization chart”. As of now, it is only possible to select one single user as the manager of one user.
What is missing: To set up our “Organization chart” exactly as our hierarchical structure is defined – meaning having possibly 2 ore more managers for a team – , we must have the opportunity to define a managing team.
Describe the solution you'd like
Solution: The solution would be that either a single user or a managing team can be selected as “a manager”; in a second step, if chosen, that managing team has to be defined: users have to be selected. When afterwards defining new manager connections, EITHER a user can be selected as a single manager OR a managing team can be selected, so that the managing team has NOT to be recreated multiple times.

@knob-msmr, this needn't be exclusive. I have had a team of managers shared across multiple people at one organisation, and another management team at another, alongside a single manager at another. However:
so that the managing team has NOT to be recreated multiple times.
This is the fundamental rationale.

@RokeJulianLockhart Of course not. But both options have to exist.
This sounds like a good idea! If you have any ideas on how to implement this, we would be happy to help you with a PR, however this isn't a top priority for us to develop right now.
